Virginia Grantmaking Charities Making Grants Over $100,000
These 31 organizations are based in Virginia and reported a median grant of $100,000 or more on their most recent Form 990 Schedule I filing. A typical grant is not a promise about any single gift -- some of an organization's grants are smaller than its median, some are larger -- but it is a reasonable signal for whether an application here fits the size of your ask.
A median grant over $100,000 is large by this site's standards. It is worth reading the organization's own page before treating it as a routine prospect -- Schedule I does not ask a grantmaking charity whether it only funds organizations it already knows, so unlike the private-foundation pages on this site, nothing here can tell you how open a given grantmaker actually is to a first, unsolicited approach.
Ordered by number of organizations funded, not by dollars -- the same convention as every list on this site. Funding more organizations means more turnover in who gets a grant each year, which is a reasonable proxy for how often a list like this one changes -- it is not a signal that any specific organization is open to a new, unsolicited applicant.
